Catch 22 1/2 Great insights, NFP. You rarely dissapoint when it comes to fusing politics with popular culture.

Spirits and Sauces Round and round and round we go.

20 Worst Pakistani Pop Songs … ever! NFP:
But what about Junoon`s really bad No More?

At the Inauguration of Hard Rock Café: Kabul Blasted. Are you laughing at poor Afghans or at us poor corporate yuppies? Both ways keep laughing and no need to get so agitated. But then that wont be you.

The God Pulp God Pulp should be called Goddamn NFP! It was great, even though I am a believer. As for the first one, lay off that hashish already bradar

Socio-political History of Modern Pop Music in Pakistan Good one, NFP. A good, long hard look at Paki pop as we know it today. But why so little on recent developments?

When the Orient met the Ox-ident NFP
Let`s have one on the happenings in India and Pak after 1997. This story was refreshing read.
